I'm 6 days away! I'm getting really nervous as well. When people ask me "are you excited about your surgery"... I'm having trouble spittin out a "yes". Trying to stay positive and I'm about to download a book I was told would help me stay positive. I just never thought the time would come an now it's here! I cant wait to lose weight! Good luck to everyone! :)

So I went today and got my upper GI done ( that was awful)!! And my blood work done. So I was told last visit that I would not need to do a pre-op diet because of my BMI being on the low side, so I have been happy about that......until today!! I was told today that I have to start the pre-op diet, THAT SUCKS!! I mean slap in the face unprepared!! So all day I've wrapping my brain around it, that's how I work. If I am aware of something I just get ready and go with it, but when it just jumps out at me it sucks!! So I went and bought some lean cuisines, shakes and Popsicles and tomorrow it starts!! Good luck to me and everyone else!!!

Wow! I wonder why they decided to put you on one? Preop diet sucks but I hope everyone is doing well with theirs :) I've found that stopping at gas stations for different Protein Shakes is helping me. Almost like stopping at a fast food place to eat? Kind of? I had my official preop today. 80 hours til surgery! Ahh...I just panicked saying that lol!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
